| Reverse description | A stylised horse facing left, depicted in the characteristically abstracted Celtic manner with disjointed limbs and a pronounced curved body. A ringpole device — a pellet set within a ring or looped linear form — appears in the field before the horse. Beneath the horse, a triad of pellets is arranged in a triangular grouping, serving as the principal diagnostic element of the Triadic type. The field is otherwise plain, with no legend or inscription, and the flan edges are irregular. |

| Additional information |
The Regni Ratham Triadic is one of several closely related quarter stater types attributed to the Atrebates and their southern British neighbours, issued during a period when cross-Channel contact with Gaulish Belgic tribes was actively shaping both coinage design and political alliances. The "Ratham" designation derives from the inscription class identified by numismatists rather than from any surviving contemporary source — the tribes themselves left no written record of their monetary arrangements.
ABC 605 is a scarce type within the broader Atrebatic series.
